From: bburnichon at gmail dot com Operating system: Linux Ubuntu 16.04 PHP version: 7.0.17 Package: Documentation problem Bug Type: Documentation Problem Bug description:Closure::bind does not require new scope to be string Description: ------------ --- From manual page: http://www.php.net/closure.bind --- On Manual page, it is mentioned that new scope should not be an instance but just class name. I checked behavior with https://3v4l.org/rrY4u and no notice were seen nor Closure::bindTo returns false. Test script: --------------- <?php class Foo { private $foo = 'foo'; } $getState = function () { return $this->foo; }; $foo = new Foo(); $getStateBound = $getState->bindTo($foo, $foo); var_dump($getStateBound()); $viaStatic = Closure::bind($getState, $foo, $foo); var_dump($viaStatic()); Expected result: ---------------- I expect at least 2 notices for last argument of bindTo and bind not being strings. -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=74277&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=74277&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.5): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=74277&r=trysnapshot55 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=74277&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=74277&r=fixed Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=74277&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=74277&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=74277&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=74277&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=74277&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=74277&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=74277&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=74277&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=74277&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=74277&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=74277&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=74277&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=74277&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=74277&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=74277&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=74277&r=mysqlcfg
